Do you prefer PC or laptop? (freeonlinesurveys.com)

I was having a friendly discussion with someone this morning about PC and Laptops for work/education stuff, he suggested that I could use a chromebook for all this stuff and this would be a good idea and make things easier. I strongly disagreed with this, mainly because I hate laptops, the keyboard and touchpad make me angry and...

jayknight,

A monitor and keyboard/mouse that you can attach to your laptop gives you the best of both worlds.

But a desktop/workstation that you can leave on and double as a server for some things is nice to have.

jayknight,

PC is a funny word. You can ask Mac or PC (From the era when PC was short for IBM (compatible) PC (vs Apple’s PC offerings). But apparently laptop vs PC is also a distinction for some people.

Nowadays I think of a PC as a computer that isn’t a dedicated headless server. Or maybe one that isn’t a work station for your professional work?

Anyway, is really a term from a bygone age.
